When you open a comic book you’ll see that the pictures are drawn in little boxes. These boxes are called panels. The spaces in between the panels are called gutters. Right now it feels I’m stuck right there, somewhere in between all the action that’s happening in the comic book industry. Stuck in the gutters.
Last Saturday, after everyone got their “airtime” at Dundee’s place, the guys turned the spotlight to me and asked what was up with me. They’ve been hearing me rant about “HAVING TO DO SOMETHING BEFORE TURNING 30” these past couple of weeks.
So I told. Told them my plans and why I was planning to what I said I’d do. And they all had suggestions on what I should I do. They had questions. I gave answers. I really want to get things done. And then move on to other stuff. Tell other stories.
Early this week, I found out that something’s brewing in the corners of the local comic book scene. Actually, some of it isn’t just brewing—it’s already done!
